Re: CPW: what kind of makeup do you wear?

  • I definitely have an eclectic mix of makeup: Clinique foundation and blush, Maybelline mascara, and then some really nice Chanel eye shadows thrown in. I have a bunch of other stuff, but its a grab bag combination of makeup I have collected.

  • I use Bare Minerals, and love it! I have a few Clinique eye shadows, but mostly it's BM. I do still use Maybelline mascara though.

  • I don't wear makeup unless it's a special occasion. My hair is enough of a mess to deal with in the morning before work :P

  • I splurge on a good foundation and the occasional eye shadow/blush.  My latest obsession is Laura Mercier pressed powder foundation.  Love it.  There's something about getting department store makeup that makes me feel better than a CVS shopping spree =)

  • I like Covergirl for foundation, blush, and eyeshadow, and Maybelline for mascara. I go for a pretty natural look and I just can't justify spending $$$ on something that's supposed to look like it's not even there.

    I totally agree on having a good foundation! With all the breakouts I've had this pregnancy, I've gained a new appreciation for my foundation!

  • Benefit for most things, but i ususaly only wear eye makeup and gloss unless its a special occation as i break out like mad with any type of foundation/powder.  Only thing that seems to work ok is the Bare Esentuals powder, but again, special occations only.

  • I'm a Bare Escentuals girl all the way.... I don't wear much other than foundation/concelater and blush, but I even found a nice lipstick from them that I will use when I want something fancier than chapstick!

  • I like expensive foundation, but for mascara and eyeliner Maybeline works for me.

  • I stopped wearing makeup a while ago. I'll wear it for special occasions, but then it's the cheap stuff. I have problem skin and I noticed that makeup actually exacerbates it, regardless of the quality of makeup (I've tried it all over the years).

  • I use a mixture of drugstore and department store stuff, but since being pregnant I would definitely say I'm splurging a bit more on expensive stuff though.  I am with you, I just want to doll myself up a bit more and look my best now that I'm pregnant.  I think it's because I feel like people are looking at me more with my belly really out there now.  I have started wearing more jewelry too lately!
